As good as always

This was our third time at this park. Second stay at the Solent Bungalow. We love this park, its clean, tidy and not too loud. Very well kept. Food and drink at the bar is good quality and value for money. The bungalow is lovely, private gardens and hot tub, bliss!! Vince the resident entertainer is a good laugh and has been here for many years which is nice as sometimes you never see the same staff twice!. A couple of observations. Open the Bistro more often, was only open two nights in the week, however was lovely and good value for money, would have liked to visit again. Another was either ditch the amusements onsite or get it sorted!!!, my daughter enjoys a quick go, I especially like the 2p roulette machines for a laugh, however the place was plain rubbish, not had a penny spent on it for years I think. Only minor things. So sad when I have to leave here. In a truly wonderful part of the world and always glorious weather. Its a great base to explore the New Forest. Will be definately visiting again one dayMore

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Shorefield Country Park.

It's great to hear that this was your third visit and that you'll be returning again. Our bungalows are always very popular due to the fantastic private gardens they have.

The Bistro is open from Monday to Saturday (6pm - 9pm) during peak periods, during off-peak it has reduced opening hours however food is available in the Cheers Bar. Thank you for your feedback regarding the Arcade, we have passed your comments onto the Operations Manager.

Regards,Shorefield Holidays

Just got back from Shorefield Country Park last weekend. Fantastic site, very quiet with loads of facilities, very tidy and well maintained. Site is a 10-15 min walk to the beach. Accommodation was very clean with a wonderful hot hub and 37" TV. Will definitely be returning

We just got back from a stay here for 4 nights mid week! The caravan we stayed in was fantastic! It was clean and really high spec! The indoor and outdoor pools were both clean and my kids loved them both! The staff were great and entertainment for children was brilliant! Only criticism was it was only on two out of four nights but it was out of season so to be expected! Would totally return and recommend!

Stayed in a super saver chalet so expected it to be basic as was the case. Birth kitchen and bathroom hot taps leaked. Had to use the car to fish on lake. Fishing was very good but parking, especially in an obviously empty space, ( as a lodge had been removed) was difficult because o lodge owner thought that all empty spaces were his and made us move. As I need car due to a medical condition this did not help. Overall, apart from irresponsible dog owners Not keeping dogs on leads it was ok. Doubt I would visit again as the pictures of chalets bear little or no resemblance to what you end up with.

Room Tip: Don't take the pictures as evidence of what you may actually end up with.

We payed a bit extra for a Select Xtra caravan; the interior was well beyond our expectations and we had a lovely verandah. The facilities were great, especially the heated outdoor pool which our 1 year old enjoyed. Perfect location for travelling around the new forest area. The only criticism I have is that the restaurant only serves carvery for dinner on Sunday, which I don't think was mentioned anywhere. The pub at the top of Shorefield road is lovely too and does great food. Will be going again.

We took our grandson away for a few days and stayed in a two bedroom caravan in the Sea Breeze part of the complex. Our first impression was that the caravan was spacious, well fitted-out (tv, microwave, balcony with tables and chairs) and comfortable. We weren't disappointed, in fact it was very good value for the £247 for three nights.

Although there are a couple of playground areas these are best suited to younger children but to compensate there are two pools.the outdoor pool comprises one large pool and a smaller one for smaller children. Both were heated (30C) and seemed to be very popular. The indoor pool was also very pleasantly warm, shallow in one section (ideal for children) and again well used. this area also has a small sauna and jacuzzi. A life guard was in attendance all of the time that we were using this pool.

There are two restaurants on site but we used only the Cheers Bar. I think it would help if it opened for dinner at 5.00 pm specifically to accommodate families with young children in the first hour. We did have to wait quite a long time for our main course but overall were quite pleased with our meals and the price paid. We went to a pub in Milford On Sea for a meal one evening and that fell well short of the meal on site.

Another thing that did impress us was the Spar shop on the complex. Yes it is limited in what it sells but overall we thought its prices were very reasonable given that it has, to a certain extend, a captive audience and that the major supermarket stores aren't 'just around the corner'.

Given that many of the holiday makers had dogs with them and walked them in the Park, I didn't see any signs of dog mess - credit to their owners. In fact overall the Park seems to be kept very tidy.

If you are thinking of staying here and aren't familiar with the area I'd recommend Boscombe for the beach rather than Bournemouth. If the weekend we were there is typical then expect Bournemouth to be packed and Boscombe much quieter (not empty by any means) but much more comfortable if you have young children to keep an eye on.

I guess the bottom line as far as Shorefield Country Park is concerned is 'would I stay there again?'. Yes is the answer, but not during peak season. I suspect it could be mighty crowded.

Room Tip: The Sea Breeze part of the Park is a few minutes' walk from the shop, restaurants etc but didn't feel as congested with caravans than other parts.
